Class 166 | 2T25: Exmouth to Paignton | The Riviera Line

After so many runs on highspeed lines or main lines, i figured it was time for a little bit of a "slower" journey - and so we are back on the Riviera!

Join me as i take the GWR Class 166 for a rather relaxing trip along the Riviera line, one of my lesser used trains but one that is honestly pleasant to drive. A bit of a different way of tackling the trip from Exeter St Davids to Paignton the 166 struggles with the grades at some points and with the combined PBC its not as easy to maintain power notching and also apply brakes.
